A good start from Gowland! He wrestles McKenna to the ground and looks to take the mount position.
McKenna has turned round and Gowland has his neck!
Can he sink the rear naked choke?
He can! He's done it!
Gowland defeats McKenna via submission (rear naked choke) in the second round.
Gowland: "I'm over the moon. Fair play to Marty, he was a lot stronger than I thought. But I'm better technically, fitter and stronger. And I fucking won!"
Gowland: "When's the next FAME MMA? I'm ready. English or Polish I don't care, I'll fight anybody."
McKenna: "I'm disappointed. I wanted to have a proper fight. But he's been doing the ground stuff. If it was a K1 fight it would have been different. I'll do it again with Sam but I have to focus on the ground game because it wasn't good enough. It was shite. Proper shite. If it was stand and bang it would have been different."
